PAY-AS-YOU-GO · CREDITS NEVER EXPIRE

Email verification that tells
the truth, not what you paid to hear

Syntax, MX records, disposable domains, role accounts, and real SMTP mailbox checks — through one fast API. Built for indie senders who think $75/10k verifications is a joke.

Try it live — one email, free, no signup

Runs a real verification against our API right now.

Free demo: 10 checks/hour. API keys get 100 free credits, no card.

Five checks. One verdict.

Every email goes through the full pipeline. We show our work — each check is returned in the API response.

📝

Syntax

RFC-aware parsing that catches typos and malformed addresses without rejecting valid-but-exotic ones.

🌐

MX records

Real DNS lookups with A/AAAA fallback. Null-MX domains (reject-all) are caught instantly.

🗑️

Disposable detection

300+ temporary email providers flagged — the #1 source of fake signups.

👥

Role accounts

info@, support@, admin@ flagged as low-engagement risks, not hard bounces.

📬

SMTP handshake

We ask the receiving server if the mailbox exists — then hang up. No email ever sent.

🎯

Honest verdicts

Valid / Invalid / Risky / Unknown. When a check can't complete, we say "unknown" — never a false invalid.

Bulk list cleaning

Upload a CSV, we verify every row, you download the results with status, score, and reason per email. Up to 50,000 emails per list.

curl -X POST https://trymailtrue.com/api/bulk \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_KEY" \
  -F "file=@subscribers.csv"
# → {"job_id":"job_abc123","total":4821,"status":"queued"}

curl https://trymailtrue.com/api/bulk/job_abc123/results.csv \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_KEY" -o cleaned.csv

Questions

How is this different from ZeroBounce / NeverBounce?

Same core checks, honest unknown-handling, and pricing built for small senders: pay-as-you-go credits that never expire instead of $50+/mo minimums. Full comparison →

Do you send any email during verification?

Never. The SMTP check opens a connection, asks "does this mailbox exist?", reads the answer, and hangs up before any message is transmitted.

What does "unknown" mean?

Some mail servers greylist or block verification probes. When that happens we return unknown instead of guessing — we'd rather under-flag than burn your list with false invalids.

Is there a free tier?

Yes: the live demo above (10/hour, no signup) plus 100 free credits with every API key — no card required.
